The Calgary Hitmen winger just wants to hear his name called by an NHL team at some point during Sunday’s draft.

“Honestly, I’ve heard many different things,” Chase said when asked what he expects this weekend.

“But I guess you never really know until it actually happens. Hopefully, somebody says my name and I end up with a good organization.

“I’m sure anywhere would be a great place for me.”

Whether he’s selected by a bottom-feeder that might require his services earlier than usual or a contender, which could delay his big-league arrival, Chase said he’d be happy either way.

“I’d like to be in any situation. Anywhere in the NHL would be ideal for me.

“Not many people get drafted into the NHL. That’s something I want to achieve, and I guess it could happen this year.”

The 6-foot, 195-pounder is ranked 153rd among North American skaters by the Central Scouting Bureau, which puts him on the bubble for this year’s draft.

But the Sherwood Park product gave himself an opportunity with a solid season.

Chase put up 17 goals and 49 points in 69 games, up from six goals and 28 points during an impressive rookie campaign.

“I got to play with a lot of great players, and, obviously, we had a great hockey team,” Chase said of the Hitmen, who bowed out in seven games to the Edmonton Oil Kings in the Eastern Conference final.

“The most important thing was winning games, but to see my numbers improve from last year was good.

“Losing in Game 7 sucks but overall, we had a good year and I think I did, too.”

Chase, who is spending the summer working for an exterior painting company in Edmonton, had 10 points in 17 playoff tilts.

He hopes the scouts were watching, especially the Oil Kings series.

“The way I played in the Edmonton series was the best I played all playoffs,” he said. “I think it was a good fit for me in how the two teams played.

“It was back-and-forth with a lot of chances and energy, and it was physical, which is how I like to play.

“It was good for the scouts to see that. And when you’re one of the last four teams to be playing in the WHL, guys are going to be watching.”

If Chase is selected in Sunday’s draft, he’ll likely be the only member of the Hitmen to hear his named called.

Goaltender Mack Shields, ranked 25th among North American puckstoppers, has an outside shot but saw limited action (10-7-1 record).

Pavlo Padakin, Elliott Peterson and Colby Harmsworth are also eligible.

“It was a tough situation for (Shields) being behind a goalie like Chris, who is probably going to be the best goalie in our league this year,” Chase said. “He didn’t get a lot of games, but he’s a great goalie. Hopefully an NHL team saw that and will pick him.”
